The Reactor Building average has been reduced to a .8 average by a continuing leak detection program.
Mechanical problems such as cleaning a compressor separator and replacing a separator heat exchanger caused the high reading in the Recovery Compressor Room.
Bendix TWA Analysis:
The computer TWA values for the Poly Foremen, Reactor Operators, Utility Operators and Shift Mechanics were above 1.0 ppm. These classifications were protected by the use of breathing air.
